Thank you, Perry Rhew Chief, Adrriinistrative Appeals Office www.uscis.gov Page 2 DISCUSSION: The Director, California Service Center, revoked the nonimmigrant visa petition. The matter is now before the Administrative Appeals Office,(AAO) on appeal. The AAO will dismiss the appeal. The petitioner filed this nonimmigrant petition seeking to extend the beneficiary's L-IA status pursuant to section 101(a)(l5)(L) of the Immigration and Nationality Act (the Act), 8 U.S.c. § 1101(a)(l5)(L), as an intracompany transferee employed in a managerial or executive capacity. The director revoked the petition on November 19,2009, concluding that the petitioner has not established that the beneficiary qualifies for the approved L-IA classification. A review of U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) records indicates that the beneficiary of this petition was also the spouse of the beneficiary of an approved application for asylum, and that he has adjusted status to that of a U.S. permanent resident as of July 20, 2010. While the petitioner has not withdr'awn the appeal in this proceeding, it would appear that the beneficiary is presently a lawful permanent resident and the issues in this proceeding are moot. Therefore, this appeal is dismissed. ORDER: The appeal is dismissed. )
